Horned Treehopper
Tricentrus convergens
15.4558, 119.921
Field Notes
Description:
This Horned Treehopper has some similarities to Leptocentrus taurus and when I was taking the picture, I thought it might be a juvenile. However, when I could see the picture better on my laptop, I realised that the differences are too many and too great. Very soon after I posted this spotting, I received the comment you can see below from Mark Ridgeway, giving me the correct ID, Tricentrus convergens.
Habitat:
This Horned Treehopper was spotted in our front yard. It fell to the ground on a branch of a tree which had just been pruned.
Notes:
Thanks to Ranger Mark Ridgeway, I now have the identification of this Horned Treehopper. It is Tricentrus convergens and can be viewed in - https://www.inaturalist.org/taxa/1116161-Tricentrus-convergens
